* FlunkyBoss: When you finally confront him, he sends all of his remaining CELL troopers at you while firing at you from an enclosed room with a gauss rifle. When you finally kick the door to his room in, you take him out with a quicktime event.

Added DiffLines:

* GlassCannon: He wields a gauss rifle when you finally confront him, but is otherwise just a regular squishy human. He's not even wearing body armor, not that it would make much difference against an opponent with a Nanosuit.

* ContractualBossImmunity: Averted. Kyong's suit may be overcharged and able to soak more damage, but he's still a human-sized opponent and thus subject to the game's physics system. Thrown objects will knock him to the ground and stun him, and you can even knock him into a nearby pool of water where he'll drown.

* MightyGlacier: Kyong wields a minigun and can take a lot more hits than a normal Nanosuit soldier, but he doesn't use any Nanosuit powers (other than punching you with strength mode if you get too close) and therefore isn't anywhere nearly as maneuverable as the regular KPA Nanosuit enemies. * MoreDakka: Wields a minigun against Nomad after Nomad breaks free of his restraints.

* HelmetsAreHardlyHeroic: Villainous example. Like General Kyong, Colonel Lee does not wear a helmet in order to be more recognizable. He does, however, wear some aviator sunglasses.

Although presumably he does carry a helmet on his person somewhere as he survives when the Ceph flash-freeze the area.

* Jerkass: Pretty much sums her up. She doesn't like O'Neill's constant intrusions on the mission (even tho they are extremely helpful) and argues with Psycho when he improvises in the mission. Even pulling support from Psycho when he undertakes non-critical objectives.

* SurroundedByIdiots: How he feels towards the rest of humanity. Given that the Pentagon's two major plans to defeat the Ceph in New York were doomed to fail from the get go (1. [[KillItWithWater flood the city to drown the Ceph]].....except the Ceph are [[EverythingsSquishierWithCephalopods cephalopods]] thus can survive in water. 2. [[NukeEm Nuke the city]]....except that they used nukes on Cephs before and [[NiceJobBreakingItHero it just gave them a power boost]].)....and the [=CryNet=] board wanted to kill Prophet (and the nanosuit program) even tho his suit was literally the ONLY way to defeat the Ceph......[[VillainHasAPoint can you blame him?]]

* MookHorrorShow: [[spoiler: The secret ending of Crysis 3 has him picking off the Crynet Board Member's personal guards 1 by 1, having the survivors scared shitless, before killing the last 2 guards and confronting the board members themselves.]] Its played almost like the start of a certain {{Film/Predator sci-fi movie}}.

** A bigger example is when[[spoiler: he calmly confronts the Crynet board members before killing them. His tone of voice and calm expression serve to make him scarier than ever before. "Good evening, members of the board. I was a [[FlayingAlive guest]] at one of your [[TortureCellar hospitals]] a little while ago, ''and I'd like to make a [[{{Understatement}} complaint]]]].'' Surmounts to say that when he is be yelling and being loud, he is only aggravated at best. Its when he starts being quiet that you should fear for your life.

* LoopholeAbuser: Averted. Lee tries to use this as justification for torturing Psycho. Lee claims that the Nanosuit is not a recognizable uniform, therefore Psycho does not qualify for rights as a POW. Abit of DidNotDoTheHomework on the devs, as the Geneva Convention declares that a recognizable uniform is anything that easily distinguishes a combatant from a civilian, and the Nanosuit is VERY recognizable. Even still, the Geneva Conventions would still grant Psycho basic protections if he were dressed as a civilian. No matter which way you cut it, Colonel Lee was committing a war crime.
